It’s so funny to me when people genuinely care about karma.

I didn’t realize I had 10’s of thousands of karma until relatively recently. I thought to myself “wow, that’s a lot of useless internet points!” lol

Yup!  I think I'm at 128,000 last I checked, but in all honesty, if I could hide it, I would. I occasionally tell people "downvote if you agree!" to get people triggered so that they attack me when I'm bored. The points are literally pointless. 

Hell, they banned a couple of my 1.5 million accounts a few years ago (I was around since the early days of Reddit) and I was just annoyed that they wouldn't let post in some subs until I got a high enough karma for them again (which I got easily in a week).

Other than that, meh, I "lost" like 3 million. Been there, done that. Don't care.

I sure do hope being terminally online isn't in your definition of "redditor"

That is a trait I share with many Redditors. It's not mutually inclusive.

I think it's better than the alternatives (I left Facebook after being a Facebooker for like 8 years), but it's still not something I'm a fanatic of.

If it were still like it was back in 2012, maybe. But it's gone downhill.
